CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
SCXI -1121
Introduction
This document contains information and step-by-step instructions for
calibrating the National Instruments (NI) SCXI-1121 module.
What Is Calibration?
Calibration consists of verifying the measurement accuracy of a module
and adjusting for any measurement error. Verification is measuring the
performance of the module and comparing these measurements to the
factory specifications. During calibration, you supply and read voltage
levels using external standards, then you adjust the module calibration
constants. This circuitry compensates for any inaccuracies in the module,
and returns the accuracy of the module to the factory specifications.
Why Should You Calibrate?
The accuracy of electronic components drifts with time and temperature,
which can affect measurement accuracy as a module ages. Calibration
restores these components to their specified accuracy and ensures that the
module still meets NI standards.
How Often Should You Calibrate?
The measurement requirements of your application determine how often
the SCXI-1121 module needs to be calibrated to maintain accuracy.
NI recommends that you perform a complete calibration at least once every
year. You can shorten this interval to 90 days or six months based on the
demands of your application.

Equipment and Other Test Requirements
This section describes the test equipment, software, documentation, and
test conditions required for calibrating the SCXI-1121 module.
Test Equipment
Calibration requires a high-precision voltage source with at least 50 ppm
accuracy, a multiranging 5 1/2 digit digital multimeter (DMM) with
15 ppm accuracy, and 120 and 800 Ω±10% precision resistors.
Instruments
NI recommends the following instruments for calibrating the SCXI-1121
module:
• Calibrator—Fluke 5700A
• DMM—NI 4060 or HP 34401A
If these instruments are not available, use the accuracy requirements listed
previously to select substitute calibration instruments.
Connectors
If you do not have custom connection hardware, you need the following
connectors:
• Terminal block, such as the SCXI-1320
• Shielded 68-pin connector cable
• 50-pin ribbon cable
• 50-pin breakout box
• SCXI-1349 adapter
These components give easy access to the individual pins on the
SCXI-1121 front and rear connectors.
Software and Documentation
You do not need any special software or documentation to calibrate the
SCXI-1121 module. This calibration document contains all the information
you need to complete the verification and adjustment procedures. If you
would like more information on the module, refer to the SCXI-1121 User
Manual.

Test Conditions
Follow these guidelines to optimize the connections and environment
during calibration:
• Keep connections to the SCXI-1121 module short. Long cables and
wires act as antennae, picking up extra noise and thermal offsets that
can affect measurements.
• Use shielded copper wire for all cable connections to the device.
Use twisted-pair wire to eliminate noise and thermal offsets.
• Maintain the temperature between 18–28 °C.
• Keep relative humidity below 80%.
• Allow a warm-up time of at least 15 minutes for the SCXI-1121
module to ensure the measurement circuitry is at a stable operating
temperature.
Calibration
The calibration procedure for the SCXI-1121 module consists of the
following steps:
1. Setting up the module for testing.
2. Verifying the existing operation of the module to determine whether it
is operating within its specifications.
3. Adjusting the module with respect to a known voltage source.
4. Verifying that the module is operating within its specifications after
adjustments.

Configuring the Gain Jumpers
Each input channel has two user-configurable gain stages. The first-stage
gain provides gains of 1, 10, 50, and 100. The second-stage gain provides
gains of 1, 2, 5, 10, and 20. The device ships with the first-stage gain set to
100 (position A) and the second-stage gain set to 10 (position D).
To change the gain setting of a specified channel on the module, refer to
Table 2 for the jumper reference designator of the channel gain stage you
want to change, and Figure 3 for the location of this jumper. Move the
jumper to the position indicated in Table 3.

The order of the settings for the first- and second-stage gain does not matter
as long as the first-stage gain multiplied by the second-stage gain equals the
desired final gain value.
Configuring the Filter Jumpers
Each input channel also has two user-configurable filter stages.
The SCXI-1121 module ships in the 4 Hz position. Refer to Table 4 to find
the correct jumper setting for the desired cutoff frequency. Figure 3 shows
the locations of the jumper blocks on the SCXI-1121 module. Verify that
both filter stages are set to the same filter setting to ensure that you achieve
the desired bandwidth.

Adjusting Current Excitation
Complete the following steps to adjust the current excitation:
1. Remove the resistor from the excitation channel if you have not already
done so.
2. Configure the channel for 0.150 mA current excitation level.
3. Set the DMM to current mode and connect it to the excitation channel
output you want to adjust. Adjust the excitation current potentiometer
until the current reading falls between 0.150060–0.149940 mA. Refer
to Figure 3 for the potentiometer location and Table 11 for the
potentiometer reference designator.
4. Configure the channel for 0.450 mA current excitation level.
5. Adjust the excitation current potentiometer until the current reading
falls between 0.450900–0.449100 mA. Refer to Figure 3 for the
potentiometer location and Table 11 for the potentiometer reference
designator.
6. Repeat steps 1 through 5 for all remaining channels.

Verifying Adjusted Values
After completing the adjustments, it is important to verify the analog
input operation, the voltage excitation, and the current excitation again by
repeating the steps listed in the Verifying the Operation of the Module
section. Verifying the adjusted values ensures that the SCXI-1121 module
is operating within its specifications after adjustments.
Note If the SCXI-1121 module fails after calibration, return it to NI for repair or
replacement.
